Green Beans With Tomatoes

This is the time of the year when I start looking to see what I have too much of in the freezer and pantry from the summer canning. It seems I may have gone a little crazy with the tomatoes and green beans, among other things.

Because I used canned and frozen doesn't mean you can't use fresh.
